Transmission Trouble Codes: List & Fixes

P0700 Powertrain The transmission computer found a fault and asked for the check engine light – read the TCM… Moderate P0741 Powertrain The torque converter lockup clutch slips or won't engage when the computer commands it. Moderate

C14A7 Jeep · Chassis The drivetrain module couldn't move the Cherokee's PTU shift actuator, so four-wheel drive… Low P0218 Powertrain The transmission fluid got hotter than the computer allows, from heavy load, low fluid… High P0700 Powertrain The transmission computer found a fault and asked for the check engine light – read the TCM… Moderate P0705 Powertrain The computer can't make sense of the gear selector position signal – P, R, N, D may be misread. Moderate P0706 Powertrain The range sensor works electrically, but its reading doesn't match where the lever and gears… Moderate P0707 Powertrain The range sensor signal voltage is below its lowest valid value – usually a short to ground… Moderate P0710 Powertrain The transmission computer lost a usable fluid temperature signal and is guessing… Low P0711 Powertrain The fluid temperature reading doesn't behave like real fluid – it warms too slowly, too fast… Moderate P0712 Powertrain The fluid temperature signal voltage is too low, so the computer thinks the fluid is extremely… Moderate P0715 Powertrain The transmission computer has lost a reliable input-shaft speed signal, so shifts get harsh… Moderate P0716 Powertrain The input speed signal is there but erratic or illogical – dropouts, spikes or values that… Moderate P0717 Powertrain The input speed sensor reports zero while the engine runs and the car moves – the signal… Moderate P0720 Powertrain Electrical fault in the output shaft speed signal – shift timing and sometimes the speedometer… Moderate P0721 Powertrain The output speed signal is noisy, drops out or doesn't agree with wheel speed or input speed. Low P0722 Powertrain The output speed sensor sends nothing while the car moves – shifting and often the speedometer… Moderate P0730 Powertrain The transmission computer sees input and output shaft speeds that don't fit the gear it… High P0731 Powertrain While in first gear, the transmission's input and output speeds don't match the first-gear… Moderate P0732 Powertrain Second gear isn't holding: the input-to-output speed ratio in 2nd is outside the expected range. Moderate P0733 Powertrain Third gear slips: input shaft speed doesn't match output speed times the 3rd-gear ratio. Moderate P0734 Powertrain Fourth gear (overdrive on four-speed units) doesn't hold the expected input-to-output speed… Moderate P0735 Powertrain Fifth gear slips or isn't fully applied; the TCM measures a ratio that doesn't fit 5th. Moderate P0740 Powertrain The computer found an open or faulty circuit to the torque converter clutch solenoid, so lockup… Low P0741 Powertrain The torque converter lockup clutch slips or won't engage when the computer commands it. Moderate P0742 Powertrain The converter lockup clutch stays applied when it should be released, which can stall… High P0743 Powertrain The TCC solenoid circuit shows an electrical fault such as a short, overcurrent or out-of-range… Low P0744 Powertrain Lockup control drops in and out: an intermittent TCC circuit, or on some makes a lockup… Moderate P0746 Powertrain Solenoid A doesn't control pressure as commanded: harsh or soft shifts, or limp mode. Moderate P0748 Powertrain The TCM detected an electrical fault (open, short or wrong current) in pressure control… Moderate P0750 Powertrain The transmission computer sees a fault in shift solenoid A or its circuit and can't use it… Moderate P0751 Powertrain Solenoid A is wired fine but its valve isn't doing its job, so gears are missing – often stuck… High
